Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 2:01 pm on 13 December 2017.
Thank you, Cabinet Secretary. I was very interested to read both of those documents. From my own experience, the school that I taught in had very strong links with the University of South Wales, which was very beneficial to our students. I also believe the Seren network—previously mentioned—although focusing on our most able and talented students, has wider benefits to schools too. But I am concerned that we need to do more to integrate these approaches more generally into schools, especially in areas such as my own constituency that don't lie in immediate proximity to a university. How will you take this forward to ensure that these types of students do not lose out?
